Jamie hummed to herself as she swept the floor, her father had left an hour or so ago just after

lunch. Shendu was painting, as usual. PoKong was on the phone, talking to Bai Tsa.

"Yes...No. Drago go was furious. I know, no suprise there...Yes. Hmm? Oh, you know Jamie...

mortified at the very idea..."

Drago, MC Cobra, and DJ Fist were doing some tai chi. Hsi Wu, and Xiao Fung were folding the

laundry, which Jamie had ordered them, more or less, to do. Dai Gui and Izzy were currently at

the doctors office, getting her exam. Tchang Zu, who was watching wrestling, wasn't exactly

thrilled about that...

Strikemaster Ice was playing checkers with Tso Lan. Tso Lan picked up one of his pieces and

jumped one of Ice's pieces.

"Hmm..."

Ice smiled and picked up his checker, jumping all of Tso Lan's remaining pieces.

"I win, moon man."

Tso Lan raised an eyebrow,"how did you do that?"

"It's my favorite board game dawg."

"Ah. So you've acquired experience playing this game."

"Right on."

Jamie smiled to herself. Those two, with such different personalities, getting along never failed

to amuse her.

BANG!!!!

Jamie jumped,"What was that?!"

Doalon Wong appeared in the center of the room. in a cloud of bad chi. He held his staff out,

sweeping the room, it began to glow bright red as it fell upon Strike master ice and the possy.

"Ah...so you are the ones my locater spell chose...I must admit I was expecting someone older..."

Ice looked confused "Uh..."

Daolon Wong continued, " Nevertheless...I suppose you'll do. I don't have time to be choosy."

Shendu hissed, "You!"

The dark wizard turned to Shendu, "Shendu. I'd know that voice anywhere..."

Drago stomped over to the elderly man, "Just who are you suppose to be gramps, and what do

you want with my henchmen?"

"Your henchmen? Just who are you, lizard boy?"

Drago growled, smoke comming from his mouth, " I am not a lizard! I am Drago, son of Shendu.

Now tell what you want from Ice and-"

"Son of Shendu?" Daolon Wong repeated, "So, you're the spawn of this lying, cheating, serpant!"

Drago growled,"Hey! No one talks about my father like that but me!"

Daolon Wong raised his staff, "I shall deal with you later, spawn of my enemy! But first, I have

minions to create..."

He turned back to the Ice gang.

"Yo, Old dawg, we aint goin' nowhere with you." Ice said.

"Yeah, we're with D-man!"

"We shall see about that," he said, raising his staff, the end glowing red/

Shendu, grunted, "dodge that spell, you fools, or you'll be turned into chi warriors!"

Cobra cleared the bolt of magic aimed at him," whoa! The old guy's packin' Ice!"

Jamie darted forward

"STOP IT RIGHT NOW, DAMNIT!"

Everyone, including Daolon Wong gaped at the 16 year old. Jamie had a fierce look in her eyes.

her icy glare of doom was enough to send a shiver down even Tchang Zu's back. Ice and the

others backed away as she approached. She was not to be tested.

"Now you look here, Wong," Jamie said, taking a step towards him, her broom gripped tightly in

her grasp, "You have no right to come into MY home and start shooting spells at my friends!"

She took another step forward, raising her broom, "You will not fight in my house after I've just

finished cleaning it! I have enough crap I have to put up with as it is!"

She swung her broom at him, hitting him in the side with the straw end.

"How dare yo-"

"OUT!"

Twack!

"Shoo! Out! Now!"

Twack!

"Shoo! out of my house!"

Twack! Twack! Twack! Twack! Twack! Twack! Twack!

Daolon Wong held up his staff, zapping her broom and rendering it dust. Jamie gulped as her

took a step forward. his staff raised above his head. "I shall destroy you for such an insult,

you insolent child!" Jamie raised her hands to defend herself.

Tchang Zu lept forward, picking the old man up by the front of his robe, carrying him out the

front door.

"You shall destroy no one today, wizard."

Daolon Wong falied in his grip "Release me, or I shall-"

"The only thing you shall DO is bathe in salt water."

He hurled the wizard out the door into the ocean beneath the docks. He wiped his hands, as if

ridding them of dirt and headed back indoors. He walked past Tso Lan, "Brother, put up a

barrier around the cannery would you?"

"Yes, Tchang Zu," Tso Lan said heading for his potions and powders. Tchang Zu turned to Jamie,

who looked up at him in awe.

"Human," he stated, "you are foolish and idiotically brave, I saved your pathetic flesh from that

mediocre sorcerer. I believe thanks are in order."

"Hey, you can't-" Drago started, but Jamie interupted him.

"No Drago... he's right, she said. She looked up at Tchang Zu. He could disagreeable, snooty, and

downright cruel sometimes, but...

Jamie smiled. He had a protective side, too.

"Thank you, Lord Tchang Zu, for saving me," she said, throwing in the 'lord' to stroke his ego a

bit. Tchang Zu's chest puffed a little bit

"I suppose that's aceptable..." he said going back to the couch. Drago scowled at Jamie

" 'Lord' huh?"

"Jealous, boss?" Ice asked, smirking.

"Shut up before I fry you."

Jamie walked over to Drago,"Stop pouting. I wanna go out for some ice cream. Wanna join? We

can get M&Ms..." she said.

Drago made a face, "M&M's..."

Jamie grinned, "I knew that'd get your attention."
